No Longer Discouraged


Charmaine, Pennsylvania

"I was about 36 when I went to the doctor's, and this is when he gave me the pills and the Kegel exercises. And I did them faithfully, but they didn't seem to work."

"When I would be walking and have this leakage, I just really used to get discouraged. But now, I'm walking two miles a day. Two weeks after I had the operation, I went to Germany for 18 days. I didn't have one accident, and I felt wonderful. It's just that you feel so much better about life. You should go to your doctor and see about this TVT treatment. It's wonderful - I would recommend it very highly."

As with any surgical procedure, surgery for Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI) may present risks. Individual patient results may vary and are not indicative of all outcomes. Patients should consult their physicians to find out if this procedure is appropriate for their condition.
